Every day Drake runs two laps at a park in his neighborhood. His speed, s, is inversely proportional to time, t, over the same distance. If Drake runs at a speed of 6 miles/hour, it takes him half an hour to complete two laps of the park. Which statement best describes Drake’s situation?

Respuesta :

multiply equation by 36 to get rid of the denominators
36* - 36* = 36(6)
Cancel the denominators
9d - 8d = 216
d = 216 mi to his house

See if that checks out, find the actual speeds
216/4 = 54 mph
216/4.5= 48 mph
